With listed infrastructure companies passing inflation directly on to their customers, investors can use them as a hedge against rising inflation, according Thomas van der Meij of Van Lanschot Kempen, a Dutch wealth management firm active in the Benelux region.

“Communication towers, toll roads and, to a lesser extent, airports perform well in a high-inflation environment. Meanwhile, US railways and energy transmission companies are benefiting from high commodity prices,” he explained.
